Add ad-hoc conference system with invitation links and temporary guest accounts #911

Description

@mremond

Summary

A feature request for an ad-hoc conference system similar to Jitsi Meet.

Description

Users would like the ability to create quick, temporary conferences that can be shared via an invitation link. The proposed workflow is:

  1. Create a new conference, which generates a temporary private MUC (Multi-User Chat).
  2. Share the conference via an invitation link.
  3. Invited participants do not need an existing account — a temporary account is created for them automatically.

Motivation

Since the client runs in a browser, this could serve as a replacement for tools like Zoom, Teams, or Jitsi Meet. Additionally, invited guests who have a positive experience might be encouraged to create a permanent account on the server.

Expected Behaviour

Users can spin up an ad-hoc conference and invite others through a link, with guests joining via automatically provisioned temporary accounts, no prior registration required.
